In memory:<br>Jason Dillon<br>1984-2002<br><br> Earlier tonight i was informed by my friend's mother that my good friend Jason had committed suicide by hanging himself in his apartment. He was 18 and left behind his girlfriend and his 1 1/2 year old son felix. he was a great guitar player in our band and a great friend to me. He had just moved from Michigan to Pittsburgh with his girlfriend so she could take classes at the Culinary Art School of Pittsburgh and had little connections in pittsburgh other than myself and my friend leigh. It is a horrible tragedy to myself, Leigh, his son and all who cared about him and he will be greatly missed.<br><br><br>

Yeah, this isn't the first time i have lost someone close, my grandfather died in 1999 when i was 13 so it is a strangely similar experience now.<br><br>
Speaking from experience, it's not easy, and doesn't get easier as time goes by. Nothing anyone can say will make it any easier, all you can do is think about the good thoughts you have about the person... my condolences.<br><br>[color:red] Kiss My Banana!</font color=red><br>Visit me here!

I am so sorry...you, your friends and family are in my prayers. I understand how you may feel, I lost my Dad this summer. Talk about it, share and yes it's alright to hurt.
